How to Create Front and Back Neck Panels

Front Neck Panel

1. Trace the Neck and Shoulder Slope
   Start by tracing the outline of the front neck and shoulder slope on your fabric.
2. Mark 2 Inches from the Shoulder Slope
   Measure 2 inches down from the shoulder slope and make a small mark.
3. Mark 2 Inches Below the Neckline
   Measure 2 inches below the neckline and mark that point as well.
4. Connect the Marks
   Connect these two marks with a smooth curve to form the shape of the front neck.

Note: Cut the front neck panel on the fabric fold to ensure a symmetrical design.

Back Neck Panel

1. Trace the Back Neck and Shoulder Slope
   Trace the back neck and shoulder slope on your fabric.
2. Mark 2 Inches from the Shoulder Slope
   Mark 2 inches down from the shoulder slope.
3. Mark 2 Inches Below the Neckline
   Mark 2 inches below the neckline.
4. Create a Circular Mark
   Draw a circular mark about 2 inches from the neckline to define the back neck opening.
